Guard Alaska Bear Spray with Nylon Holster

If you buy this item watch the Youtube video on how to use. It gives you some real pointers of what to do and not to do.

These are great! The price is good and the product is quality. And yes, I've actually used it. We live in black bear country and those critters will climb over our five foot porch railing to get to the door and windows. This spray will send them running lickity-split and they won't come back. I just spray it right through the screens.But be careful, if you get a back spray, you'll be coughing and sneezing and you won't be able to open your excessively watering, burning eyes so be sure to shut the door or window quickly until it dissipates and if your outside, head off in an upwind direction. And don't get it on your hands because this stuff doesn't just wash off; it has to wear off. Use with caution for sure but don't be afraid to use it. It's the only thing we've found that'll send the bears packing, never to return....until we get a newbie bear that needs to learn that he shouldn't be trying to break into people homes!

So it's hard to review something that I didn't actually get to use for it's intended purpose. I bought this for going up north into bear country and wanted something to deter the bear and not have to use a gun. The size is good and it fit well in the holster and it was easy to clip to the straps on my backpack so it was easy to reach at all times. I didn't have the chance to actually use it, the upside to my life and the bears but not so much for a review. I can't say for sure it works since I didn't get the chance to use it. I can tell you I really wanted to see it work so when I got back home I waited to have a day where the wind was not blowing to much and blasted it off. I measured this as best I could and from me holding it at about 5ft off the ground and blasting straight away, the fall off spot was about 17 ft. away. Not sure I want a bear within 17 ft of me or not but seems like a last resort.

I fought off a pitbull that chased me across my yard with this stuff.

Ordered bundle of three, received only one right before we leave for Yellowstone. Please see the pic.

Great product. I have always purchased this brand. One reason I like it is because of the trigger assembly, which makes accidental firing highly unlikely but is easy to remove safety when needed. Fast shipping and fair price too.

Got them as promised and at a good price. Summering in the Colorado high country (11,000 ft.) we have our share of black bears so I always keep a canister with when I'm hiking or fishing. Have been lucky enough to not have to use it, but it is good to know I have it if I have to.

works good, becareful of blow back in slightest wind!!!!!!!!!
